Re: Fabtech 6" lift
I noticed today that my front diff is leaking. I?ve been running with 38" tires without lift for a year now and havent have any problems until now. I?ve cranked up torsion bars could it cause oil leak ?

Re: Fabtech 6" lift
where is the leak coming from? if it's the drain plug you might need to tighten it up or install a new plastic washer under the drain plug.
here is a thread on it

Re: Fabtech 6" lift
it might be the issue, but can´t say for sure where it leaks. Could it possibly leak somewhere else? I have to clean the diff and see where it really leaks...
My friend told me that he drived one H2 with 6"fabtech lift and he claimed that it handled very differently. Handling was very poor compared to stock h2 
.
Is it true it could affect to driveability so much ?
Should I get some leveling kit =(better driveability) ???? otherwise ????
With leveling kit is it possible to lift rear also (without air springs)
My truck drives and handles very good, but I hate rubbing and it rubs HARD.
I love the lifted look and better ground clearance when driving in deep snow, but would not like to lose driveability.

Re: Fabtech 6" lift
Mine has a 6" Fabtech. It's definitely different than driving a stock, but after a week or 2 you get used to it. A lot more responsive. I do highway and city driving and have no issues with it whatsoever. Would never, ever go back to a stock truck again.
